A '''slimeball''' is a [[crafting]] ingredient commonly dropped by [[slime]]s, and can be sneezed out by [[panda]]s.

== Obtaining ==

=== Mob loot ===

==== Slimes ====
{{see also|Tutorials/Slime farming}}

If a [[slime]]'s size is 1, it drops 0–2 slimeballs when killed. The maximum number of slimeballs is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 5 slimeballs with Looting III.

==== Pandas ====

Baby [[panda]]s have a {{frac|1|700}} chance of [[drop]]ping one slimeball when sneezing.

Slimeballs can be used to breed [[frog]]s and reduce the remaining growth duration of [[tadpole]]s by 10%. Both also follow a player holding a slimeball.
